    New hot pot spot did not disappoint! A friend found the Hotpot Den via TikTok, so our book club group met up here for dinner. Overall- everything feels more elevated than your typical hotpot in Denver. The sauce station is thoughtful- everything you could think of- scissors to cut meats, tongs, soup ladles, extra bowls/plates. The food was soooo good! I got the pho broth- since most places don't offer it. I also tried my friends pork and spicy broths. The spicy is just the right level of spice. Definitely would recommend!

    Side dishes and pork belly to be added to our broths.

    I have walked into this newly opened restaurant several times, but have never eaten here until today. This neighborhood AYCE hotpot place has been on my radar for at least a year or perhaps two years. Every time I stopped by to see the status, I always see the "coming soon" sign. However, about several weeks back when a friend told me she and her dad went there to eat hot pot, I was very excited to know they finally opened. And so, I went and checked it out myself. The first time I set my foot here, place was very quiet. Perhaps people gave up on waiting for the opening or perhaps the owner didn't do a great job advertising that the restaurant is now open and is operating with a full schedule, opening every day. Today, walking toward the restaurant, a big sign boated "GRAND OPENING", so there's no way diners would miss the place when they drive by, and plenty of free parking spaces for folks to park too. Going inside, the place has enough lights, but I wouldn't say it is well lit. However, diners do not have to use their phones to turn on the light just to look at the menu: menu has beautiful photos of the items to be added to their broth. My Tom Yum broth was deliciously flavorful with the items I added, including bok choy, brisket, string, mushrooms, pieces of taro, half of the crab, jumbo shrimp and my favorite noodle, udon. It was so good! Everything was fresh! Even the plates of meats, all rolled up and neatly arranged, looked very nice. We were here for almost 2 hours, just eating and enjoying the various conversations. The waitstaff was a group of young people whose job was to make sure we had a wonderful meal, so they get an A+ for being very attentive to our needs and being professional at the same time. After our meal, we were served with some ice cream to complete our eating experience. I drove away happy and very satisfied. I give Hotpot Den a solid A.

    I was really happy with the service as well as the food. They had a great variety of vegetables as well as seafood and meat without being overwhelming. The seafood, the ribeye the brisket all of it seemed very fresh and tasted great. I had the seafood broth which I thought was amazing. Actually the pho broth was really good for the children. It had a deep rich flavor. Definitely will be going back to try some of the other broths. Crowd pleaser for the kids was the free ice cream afterwards so all around a great experience.

    It was very good! Far and above our experience at Chubby Cattle. The broths were all excellent. Husband got spicy miso, daughter got pork, and I got Tom Yum. Each of them was delicious. The meats were all good. I recommend the ribeye. And the seafood was a hit or miss. The seafood honestly tasted a bit old and the texture of the shrimp was mealy. The blue crab was not worth it at all--very fishy. The vegetables were plentiful and very fresh! Loved all the different greens they offer and three different types of mushrooms--all manageable sized to cook just right. The sweet potato was super dry even coming straight out of the broth, but yummy. I've been to so many different Asian restaurants in my life, and I still wish that they would offer fountain drinks instead of individual cans. Seems stingy when we're paying more than $30 per person. The condiment bar was also very impressive with the various sauces and toppings. The only sauce that I wish was better quality was the sesame oil. It tasted old too. Everything else seemed fresh--a curious thing was a tub of minced garlic that was from a jar and fresh minced garlic. Maybe people prefer the jarred garlic taste? I think I would swap out the jarred garlic for something more like lemon grass paste or fresh ginger. The place was not overly busy, but we ate dinner on a Tuesday just after the long weekend. The table could have been cleaner. There were bits of food on the edges of the burners. The burners were still slick with grease and there were dots of grease on the table and remotes for controlling the burners. Just a little more attention to cleanliness could help out. The staff were busy, friendly, and helpful. The overall experience was very good. A few tweaks and it could be a 5 star. I wish they would add more of a knife cut noodle or something between the side of a ramen noodle or udon noodle that was a wheat noodle. We'll for sure be back.

    This was place phenomenal!!! Very fast service and server was very attentive! The selections for the hotpot were plenty! Would easily go back within the week! This also was the only busy place in the entire plaza on a Tuesday night so that clearly says something about the food and service!

    Great selection of meats and ingredients!

    My wife and I enjoyed a delightful lunch at Hotpot Den on Kipling Street in Littleton. Fresh ingredients, flavorful broths, friendly service, and a great self-serve sauce bar made it a perfect hot pot experience. Highly recommend--5 stars!

    Incredible food, endless options with fresh ingredients simmered in flavorful broths, and genuinely great service to top it all off.

    Great new place here in Littleton, CO. I would recommend this place for those that have not tried hotpot before. Those that have, it was still delicious and I would come back. Quality of meat was on point after a few rounds. I recommend coming in a couple hours after they open. My family and I came right when they opened. Was provided meat that was frozen from day prior. I tried the Miso broth, spicy broth, tom yum broth and beef broth. All of the broths lack flavor except miso. If you get the tom yum, make sure you go to the condiment bar and grab a few slices of lime to add on to your broth for more of a real tom yum flavor. Service was great, you do have to ask for chopsticks. The condiment bars has the basic ingredients to make a good dipping sauce. The umami seasoning is MSG, which I loved. They have a good selection of seafood, vegetables and meat. Everything was fresh.

    Spicy Miso Broth, Tomyum Broth, fatty beef, pork belly, ribeye

    Very tasty, staff were friendly and around often. Condiments and add-ons are self serve near the front of the restaurant, i'm glad we realized this because we were not instructed of it. Overall great food and service!

The blue cheese chips were really good as were the fish and chips. We had it with cod.

    Came to visit this place for the first time on Valentines Day and it has become a favorite!…read moreTo start, the host let us know upon arrival that they were out of all sauces besides the garlic butter and also out of other items which was a little disappointing. I was very skeptical at that point if I was going to really like this place. Next, we got seated quite quickly although there were 5 couples ahead of us. All the staff members I encountered were very friendly, nice and attentive which was a huge plus, especially considering how busy it was that day. We ordered our food and noticed they had very good prices and cheaper than our go-to seafood boil place so that's a win! The food came out hot, our server emptied out the bags for us which was very nice. I ordered the shrimp with head on xxtra hot and It was the perfect spice level for my latina taste buds, absolutely loved it even with just the garlic butter sauce. My husband got snow crab and he was very pleased with how tasty and easy it was to crack them open and get the crab out. If you have leftovers they will pack it up for you which is another plus for me! Lastly, I got a beautiful rose to end the night when we were heading out which was a nice touch! Overall, I will definitely be coming back to this restaurant. It was delicious and cooked perfectly! I am excited to try out their other sauces and look forward to it!
